PHMSA NGDISM program ↗
Read program scope and the applicable funding-year materials.

The account decision
Start with the operating utility.
Connect a grant record to local project evidence. Funding identifies a reason to investigate; current local records establish whether supplier participation remains possible.
Read complementary source lenses.
Each source answers a limited question. The evidence must resolve to the same gas utility and jurisdiction.
Primary-source lens
PHMSA FY2023 award list, page 2 ↗
Identify the named system, scope and historical award period.
Limit
Award value does not establish remaining spend.

National Grid supplier registration ↗
Use official qualification pathways as a separate research lens.
Limit
Investor-owned qualification examples are not municipal procurement rules.
Proposed deliverable
A brief that supports a specific next step.
These are proposed fields and research outputs, not a claim of an available product or completed account dataset.
- A funding record with system, award period, publication date and scope.
- A local-document checklist for board decisions, engineering and procurement.
- A separately supported procurement stage, or an explicit unknown.
- A supplier-fit interpretation that preserves conditions and historical status.

Municipal funding to procurement
Which public gas systems have a dated funding record that fits your capability, and what is the next verified procurement step?
Identity: to verifyProgram stage: source requiredProcurement: unknown
Evidence and provenance
- Primary record
- Document title, original URL and exact page.
- Date fields
- Publication date, report period, review date and separately supported status date.
Supplier interpretation
Connect only the documented scope to your offering. Mark technical fit and the buyer function as hypotheses until verified.
Action limits and next record
Retain missing procurement, implementation and budget fields as unknown. Name the next official record needed to support an action.
Verified historical example
Separate the record from the conclusion.
Verified historical example: City of Chanute, Kansas, appears in the PHMSA FY2023 NGDISM list for methane leak detection equipment. The May 30, 2024 list, page 2, supports the award category. Current procurement, implementation and remaining budget are unknown.
Read the complete Chanute evidence record ↗Source-library review: October 14, 2026. An example does not establish current procurement status.
Unknowns and next verification
Make the missing evidence visible.
Read the municipality’s official agenda, budget and procurement records. Establish project implementation status and any actual invitation. Do not treat an old award as an open lead.
- Whether the system has already contracted or completed the work.
- Whether funding conditions or local decisions changed the scope.
- Whether procurement is through the municipality, consultant or contractor.
- Whether any current notice contains an accessible supplier invitation.
